Thatchbro TAS Guide V.2
Feed and Seed 1:07:25
Go as close to the bottom to execute right after he opens his mouth. Under 1:07:80 is OK
Hammer Chime 19:11
Be fast as possible. Remember you can start earlier as you think ! Right when the screen turns lighter .
Hexoskeleton 30:50
RNG heaven. This is just pure luck . Sorry but that's the reality. 30 sec has been done starting with the blue button the last runs. Here you need under 32 sec definitely!
Book Bash 1:25:31
Most important here is firing the paintballs aka the fire trick. Don't spam the button. Instead hit once then hold till it pops out 3 paintballs and repeat.
First wave: try hit one at the side then fire as much as possible on top of his head.
Second wave: Start firing IMMEDIATELY after the golden book has passed. Here you do only the fire trick and go bit down on the last 3-4 balls.
Third wave: Fire trick then finish at his side. its 50/50 if its right or left side.
Good time here is under 1:28.
Bowser`s Block party 30:56
First wave: hit the end of the wall behind him. Wait and finish when the block has tilted.
Second wave: hit as fast as possible after he has spitted out fire.
Third wave: get perfect angle to hit 3 times . Then wait for him to return and hit 2 times. Tactic discovered on the same day the TAS was uploaded.
Masterjun: This movie is overall sloppy for a TAS. The menu inputs at the start are not optimized at all. While this run seems to aim for in-game time (IGT), it is slower than known records. Check the discussion thread for specific examples. As a side note, you did not provide a verification movie for this run. This is necessary for runs which start from a non-empty save.

WORLD RECORD
[TAS] Mario Party DS Boss Bash 3:52:73 by Thatchbro
The reason why it says 10 min instead of 3:52 on movie lenght is because of RnG manipulation on Hexoskeleton. To do so you need to go to practice mode to check what order is going to be executed IF you pressed Start button . When finding the perfect combination to trigger 30 seconds you have to make a save state before the menu.
I cut the RnG manipulation lenght on youtube video.
Also check my guide on https://www.speedrun.com/mariopartyds/guide/048u5
Hope you found the TAS video interesting.

You're a moderator to a game who should understand what the purpose of TASing is, but you provided this?
Going off what I saw including your menuing. I'm going to go on the assumption as nothing is provided, that your TAS is suboptimal.
Just to show it off as a side-by-side.
I went to GameFAQs just so I can show, and so I can see how much of your TAS can sync with it (desynced at the start with Feed and Seed).
Ontop of that GoddessMaria has a better Hammer Chime than you. She kicked in a 18.76.
A niconico TAS cracked in an 18.90 right behind GoddessMaria.
Nice RNG "manipulation".
By "interesting" I hope you mean, what I just ended up doing to your TAS.
Then Yes. If not. Then No.

Disables Comments and Ratings for the YouTube account.Something better for yourself and also others.
The goal of TASing is not submitting guides for players. TAS is all about entertainment and pushing games towards their limits. The guide you submitted in speedrun.com is enough for players for real-time runs.
Slowest damn human menuing the screen ?
This is about IGT . Fast menu select is worthless.
This run is the fastest any % at the moment .
I am new to TAS and the other requirements are fully understandable .
I can do a faster TAS with hammer chime . Hexoskeleton can be done in 29 sec but need more patience .
I understand if IGT runs are not acceptable
RnG manipulation is only on hexoskeleton . Not hammer chime that was just slow . Read properly man .
Bowser , book bash and feed and seed are perfect .
You also need description setting to use RNG manipulation on Hexo . You dont understand how this game works so why bother .

It matters for the site, the site isn't going to judge just based off of IGT.

Please read the Submission Instructions before submitting a movie.
In particular, please ensure that your movie is complete (not a work in progress), and that it beats all known records if going for speed. Works in progress may be posted in the WIP thread or other places. If you are simply looking for a place to store your movie files for distribution to other members, please consider user files.
Warning: Might glitch to creditsI will finish this ACE soon as possible
(or will I?)

If you judge the whole TAS then the video is not interesting
We judge the whole tas. Regardless of if the rest of the video is "boring."
The whole idea of a TAS is to start from power on to the last input to reach what is considered the end of the game. That even includes stuff that may not even be counted in RTA runs (example would be zelda's text in OoT after defeating Ganon)
We dont operate like speedrun.com.

As what McBoBX said then I understand that this run is not a verified TAS run . I was using TAS tools for achieving this time but this is not a whole TAS run. Sorry for interrupting youre time .

You focused on nearly all my points but you missed the major two on why it's definitely going to be rejected, if the other points are invalid (which they're not).

That's not an excuse. Also you blatantly proved this point right further.

So good job on that.

Haaaaaaaaaaaaave you met pause buffering to stall the length of entering a boss fight and seeing if that works?

Remove the word "this" and change the word "game" to "TASing", then apply it to yourself. Cause you're not even using the touch screen.
